The folk-rock song, written and sung by Nicks with Buckingham on guitars, may be as relatable as any song in the classic rock canon. Though not originally a single, “Landslide” emerged from that record as not only its most popular song with fans but also with fellow artists. The album began a string of records lasting into the late ’80s, including Rumours in ’77, where the group, despite plenty of inner turmoil, could seemingly do no wrong musically.
It’s the landmark album that would give the band its first huge success in America and result in several fan favorites like “Rhiannon” and “Landslide”. There’s the blues rock version of the band, which featured a revolving-door of guitarists and gradually transitioned into softer rock over several records, and then there’s the pop powerhouse the band became famous as once guitarist-singer Lindsey Buckingham and vocalist Stevie Nicks joined for the outfit’s self-titled 1975 record. The tale of Fleetwood Mac (the Reader’s Digest version, anyway) can be told in two parts.
